An efficient facism does not require much direct state violence. It merely requires the assurance that private violence aligned with the desires of the regime will go unpunished.

I read someone say they didn't have sympathy for people that lost their homes in LA because "they are wealthy". How heartless. Wealthy or not they have suffered a huge tragedy. Loss of stability, community, keepsakes etc. They are human & money is not everything.

Anyone who says there wasn’t enough water in the reservoirs to fight the California wildfires NEEDS to watch this & help stop misinformation. Can we please get back to uniting as a country when there are catastrophic disasters? Lying only disrupts efforts to help people in need.

If she votes to confirm him — with all the credible allegations of sexual predation and alcoholism — then the good people of Iowa should VOTE HER OUT in 2026.
